Description#

Manage local and global configuration.

Subcommands:

  • list: List the active configuration (or from the file specified)

  • edit: Edit the configuration file in an editor

  • get: Get the value associated with name

  • set: Set the name=value

  • unset: Unset the value associated with name

  • debug: List the configuration files and values defined under them

If none of --user, --global and --site are passed, a virtual environment configuration file is used if one is active and the file exists. Otherwise, all modifications happen to the user file by default.

Editor to use to edit the file. Uses VISUAL or EDITOR environment variables if not provided.

--global#

Use the system-wide configuration file only

--user#

Use the user configuration file only

--site#
